We should not be attached to these temporary attractions. We admit these are temporary attractions, but we are still . . . just like children. They are attracted to the . . . but the parents, they're guiding, "Oh, you must go to school." Niḥśreyasāya. That is śreyaḥ. The boy, the child, does not like it, but the parents, they are anxious, "Oh, my child is not going to school; he is being spoiled." So dragging him.
Similarly, the scriptures, the sages, the saintly persons, the devotees, the representative of Kṛṣṇa, God, they're very much anxious to take us back to Godhead, back to home. That is niḥśreyasāya. That is the ultimate benediction. To be . . . (indistinct) . . . enamored by the temporary society, friendship and love.
And it has become a thankless task for the saintly persons, devotees of God—to drag them, "Oh, please come here. Please chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. Please be Kṛṣṇa conscious. Please be God conscious." Nobody likes it. They think it botheration, "Why Swāmījī comes here and bothers us?" But it has become the business.
Therefore the qualification of a saintly person is titikṣava, very tolerant. Very tolerant. Just like Lord Jesus Christ, he was crucified. Still, he was so tolerant he, at the time of crucification, he's praying to God, "My Lord, these people do not know what they are doing. Please forgive them." Just see how much tolerant. Titikṣava.
This is the first qualification of saintly person or God's servant or God's son. Very tolerant. They have to push on their Kṛṣṇa conscious movement, or God conscious movement, through so many odds. Through so many odds. Because they are just like the child; he's attracted with playthings.
